Essential JavaScript Links

I no longer mantain this list. There are lots of other very comprehensive JavaScript link lists out there. Please see those, instead (Google "awesome JavaScript" for a start).

Convert MOV to GIF using FFmpeg and ImageMagick

I tried a few different techniques to make a GIF via command-line and the following gives me the best control of quality and size. Once you're all setup, you'll be pumping out GIFs in no time!

Preparation

Install FFmpeg

brew install ffmpeg [all your options]
##* Example:
brew install ffmpeg --with-fdk-aac --with-ffplay --with-freetype --with-frei0r --with-libass --with-libvo-aacenc --with-libvorbis --with-libvpx --with-opencore-amr --with-openjpeg --with-opus --with-rtmpdump --with-schroedinger --with-speex --with-theora --with-tools

	Changing SmartGit Free Trial License to Non-Commercial

	Some developers might overlook the license selection when using the SmartGit. Instead of choose non-commercial, they by default clicked Next on the “30 days Free Trial”. Worse thing is reinstall the SmartGit won’t get you to change the license.

	To alter the license. First, go to

	Windows: %APPDATA%\syntevo\SmartGit\<main-smartgit-version>
	OS X: ~/Library/Preferences/SmartGit/<main-smartgit-version>
	Unix/Linux: ~/.smartgit/<main-smartgit-version>

	Remove osxfuse if installed via homebrew:
	> brew uninstall osxfuse

	Install osxfuse binary and choose to install the MacFUSE compatibility layer:
	http://sourceforge.net/projects/osxfuse/files/latest/download?source=files

	Reboot (optional but recommended by osxfuse)

	Install ntfs-3g via homebrew:
	> brew update && brew install ntfs-3g
